Come, come…and I brought electric, gasoline and hybrid versions. This is what Jaecoo could say about his arrival in Spain and, more specifically, about the Jaecoo 5the new SUV from the Chinese company. A compact option that allows the firm to open the market right where they can do the most damage. And the compact SUV market is one of the most competitive in Europe. If not the most. Jaecoo’s proposal, of course, goes directly to the heart of the European consumer’s doubts. Two cars that, each in its own way (and little trick) will sell right on the border of 20,000 euros. Jaecoo 5 technical sheet Jaecoo 5 Body type. Compact five-seat SUV. Measurements and weight. 4.38 meters long, 1.86 meters wide and 1.65 meters high. Wheelbase of 2.62 meters. 1,521 kg weight for the gasoline version. 1,785 kg weight for the electric version. Trunk. 480 liters in both versions.

Infotainment system compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay (wireless). Head-Up Display. 50 W wireless charger. 540º camera for use off road. Heated and ventilated seats in front. Heated steering wheel. Panoramic roof. Electric hybrid. First deliveries in 2026. Plug-in Hybrid. No. electric. Yeah. Version with 211 HP, 60 kWh battery and approved range of 402 kilometers. Price and launch. Gasoline and electric versions now available. Gasoline: from 27,500 euros without discounts (the brand advances a promotional price of 19,990 euros) Electric: from 35,500 euros without discounts or aid (the brand advances a promotional price of 19,990 euros in which discounts and aid are added) In the clear Last April, my colleague Javier Lacort went to China to go to the Shanghai Motor Show. There he was already able to test the Jaecoo 5 EV, that is, the completely electric version of the Chinese compact SUV. Then he said about the car that it was “the SUV that no longer asked for permission”. Now, having upgraded to its electric and gasoline versions (the hybrids will arrive in a few months), I understand perfectly what he was referring to. “The finishes, another symptom of maturity, point in the same direction. There are no luxuries, but there is discretion“My partner said then and I think that phrase largely sums up what this car is. The company puts these versions on sale with a starting price of 27,500 euros for the gasoline version and 35,500 euros for the electric version. But its motto is different: you can have either of the two from 19,990 euros. The first with a launch campaign that has very clear ideas: sell as much as possible from the start and make the car visible, there will be time to remove the promotional discounts at the start. The second takes advantage of MOVES III Planbut that would leave the car at a maximum of 28,500 euros. That is why the company applies another discount to which Repsol also adds to put it below 20,000 euros. With that price, of course, it is almost impossible to compete. And the Chery Group is attacking with Omoda and Jaecoo to an audience that wants a car with a modern look on the inside, decent finishes and a price with which European rivals cannot (or are not directly interested) compete. Between 20,000 and 25,000 euros in a size similar to the Jaecoo 5, almost everything is Chinese proposals: DFSK, EVO, MG, DR Automobiles… And the European ones (Citroën C3, Peugeot 2008 or Dacia Duster) are not up to par in the quality of the materials used. Because, as we have said on other occasions, Chinese brands are winning over the customer at the dealership. As I will tell you later, I reaffirm myself, a Dacia Duster moves better and is very likely to consume less gasoline. But its hard plastics wherever you look and touch cannot be compared with the subtle padding spread across the doors and dashboard of this Jaecoo 5. Nor with a finish that, from the start, comes with a 13.2-inch central screen and 2K resolution, a multifunction steering wheel with a pleasant touch (and a rarely seen horizontal double radio formula), wireless CarPlay and Android Auto and heated front seats, in addition to up to 19 security systems. ADAS driving aids. For little more we add synthetic leather, ventilation for the seats, heated steering wheel, panoramic roof, electric trunk, Sony sound system with eight speakers, 50W wireless charger (with ventilation) and 540º rear view camera (you can see what is under the car), which will also reach the basic package in the hybrid versions. Tell a customer who comes from a car that is more than 10 years old and in the midst of rising market prices not to get caught up in an interior like that. More so if that car has an advertised entry price of less than 20,000 euros. And how is it going? In our case we had the opportunity to get into the electric and gasoline versions on a round trip of about 140 kilometers for each of the cars. The vast majority of this route was done on the highway and we barely touched secondary roads. It is worth pointing out this because we would have to put the vehicle’s dynamism to the test more although I did return with the feeling that, in that brief contact, I found the electric version more pleasant. and interesting… although I understand that gasoline will … Read more

When we talk about the Byd Seal U in Xataka We already commented that Byd’s play with his plug -in hybrid was almost perfect. It puts a family car on the market, comfortable and, above all, much cheaper than the rivals. Because yes, the Toyota C-HR with which he is fighting for being the best-selling plug-in hybrid costs the same but is much smaller. It is difficult not to start here this test of the BYD Seal 6 DM-I in any of its variants, sedan or family. The first option starts at 37,000 euros (before the discounts that we will detail). The family adds 2,000 euros more cost. If we are looking for rivals, a PEUGEOT 308 plug -in hybrid is in the 35,000 euros barrier and it is half a shorter meter. Literally. Below 40,000 euros, no brand offers plug -in hybridization with a similar size. Either below 45,000 euros. A plug -in hybrid Skoda (the closest for price) costs 48,000 euros at least. That is, its largest rival for size already part of about 9,000 euros more (before the discounts of each brand). With that premise it is easy to understand why ByD is hurting the plug -in hybrid market and planting Toyota with the only car in the market. Because up to the 6 DM-I by 6 DM-I, the car offers a good quality sensation and, with its highest equipment, the screen grows to 15.6 inches. Otherwise, All cars arrive as standard With: electric seats, heated and ventilated, heated steering wheel, interior in vegan leather, adaptive cruise control, 360 degree camera, bidirectional load, voice assistant, Android Auto or Carplay … to mention just some examples. The car also moves very applauded. It is far from the classic soft suspensions that have the rest of the byd cars and helps their enormous battle and a lower center of gravity to go much more on the site. We have not been able to study your adaptive cruise control with peace of mind but we can say that in general it has been correctly, little intrusive in lane maintenance. Of course, as we said, it is an analysis that lacks kilometers of a long -term test. What we can say is that the combustion engine of 1.5 liters with the gasoline engine is a bit fair. Despite its 212 hp, the car gives not accelerating with the power that its numbers say. It behaves very well llaneando, it is a comfortable car but it would be appreciated a better answer when the right pedal is stepped strongly. This is because, in the absence of a deeper analysis, this BYD Seal 6 DM-I prioritizes the use of the combustion engine as an electricity generator. This accumulates in the battery and in the vast majority of the circumstances, it is the electric motor that drives the wheels. Only when we have stepped together and sustained the effort in the accelerator, it shows that the … Read more

Playing funambulism has never been easy. Keeping balance in a rope to, step by step, touring a path in which any small unexpected obstacle can make you fall. Managing air currents to stay firm, in your site, because you know that giving in to one of them can be fatal. That is the game that Mazda has been practicing. Of which has always made a flag to stay as an alternative, a company that presumes different things to conquer an audience that wants different things. Of course, with a good product that supports your decisions. Now, with the electric car, those currents are stronger than ever.

Winds of change Everything in Mazda breathes Japanese air. The company boasts of Japanese philosophy and design, of paying attention to detail as Only Japanese obsession allows. That is why they have remained firm before the currents that They took us to eliminate physical buttons either They have been so hard with the electric carespecially those that are huge and heavy. In those Mazda has remained So far with the electric car. His MX-30 boast of rational. They are aware that an electric car, where more advantage has to get combustion is in the urban environment. Because their virtues of rolling silently, without vibrations and without transmission are more evident. They put on the market a car that fulfilled all this and that aspired to combine Its electric mechanics with lightness. A challenge that has not come to the company. Its 200 km of autonomy have been very concise for the client. The solution they have thought is as crazy as a rational: stuffing a rotating engine and offering an extended range electric. A light plug -in hybrid, perfect in electric mode for day to day and useful if we leave the city. But rationality is a value that works rarely in the car market. And in that irrationality, Mazda has found an unexpected success. In China, Where is it associated with Changan Since they entered to manufacture in the country when they were still part of Ford, they got good sales with an enormous electric Berlina, with the external identity signs of Mazda but giving ground to the demands of the Chinese client inside, such as its huge screen. Good results encouraged the company to bring the car to Europe. To try their luck with an electric Berlina 4.92 meters long, with sufficient autonomy to travel and, above all, a much more tight price than that of its rivals. If electric cars have reduced quality in the interiors to file the price to the maximum and, many, have not yet managed to enter the budget of potential customers, this Mazda 6e appeals directly to them. Assignments that hurt (but understand) We said with the new Mazda CX-5 that the company based much of its attractiveness in atmospheric engines, on having a six cylinders in diesel line with the CX-60 or not bend to the whole screen even in its most expensive cars, such as Mazda CX-80. For a Mazda enthusiast, the latter is, without a doubt, what will hit him most in this Mazda 6e. The company has brought its electric Berlina directly and has put it on the market with minimal changes. These changes have focused, directly, on the tuning of the vehicle to feel that we are facing a firm suspension vehicle, which keeps the body in place and flees from the classic flaneos of Chinese vehicles, whose customers prefer a softer touch. That rolling quality is, without a doubt, one of the best attributes of the car. Its poise and its silence collide with a firm acceleration but without stridency, that does not hit you to the seat as in the electric cars that need to demonstrate that they are fast to conquer an audience that they question their soul. But its 245 or 258 hp, depending on the chosen battery, offer a linear thrust and great security against any hurry that may arise on the road. In Sport mode I have the feeling that he wanted to spin too fine and have gone from thread. First because the exquisite touch of the direction, one of the identity of the brand in all its cars, is lost with it active, appreciating artificial. But, above all, being so direct that on the highway it can be slightly uncomfortable because to each small rectification the car feels sway to start a turn that never arrives. The concessions continue inside where what is most attracted is their flattened steering wheel and their Huge 14.6 inches screen. And its absence of tactile controls. The extremely fine and well thought out ergonomics that has defined its models so far is lost here because recreating a whole new puffer cabinet and building from scratch a software that adapts to the rest of the brand models would take, without any doubt, the final costs of the product. And, above all, it is very likely that it compromised functions that in an electric car are essential, such as the route calculator, since the model software was … Read more

“We are not Premium” It is the mantra repeated until satiety in the Hyundai/Kia tandem. It is what they told us when we got into KIA EV9. This is what they have repeated from Hyundai when we have put ourselves to the controls of the Hyundai ioniq 9 for the first time. However, it is clear that both SUV brothers have a clear vocation to raise the level.

There is no definition of use. There are no minimum or clear criteria that, if they were fulfilled, fully put to a car in the category of “The Premium”. And yet, we all have more or less clear what those premium cars are. In Europe, without any doubt, the German Mercedes-BMW-Audi trio are the great emblem of this category. Because? Because their products are refined, they have good materials and adjustments above average. And although they are being criticized for according to what solutions either according to what materials usedthe truth is that its quality is above the rest of the market. Also its price … but also its brand image, the status they bring to the client or, at least, the client feels that he is acquiring when he buys one of his cars. That is why it is so complicated to enter the premium segment. And not only uses purely objective issues, there is a part of irrationality that makes a car with a more brief starting equipment and a higher price in a premium car. The line with the generalists is clear. A generalist is not an aspirational car like the previous ones. It does not have the finishes of a premium, it does not use the same materials and, above all, it does not project the same image who travels aboard a Renault as a Mercedes, although they can share pieces … Like the engine itself. And in between there is a slippery category. That of those cars that are not Premium but have a slightly higher price than the generalists and that have been more careful than them. Good for driving touch, materials or equipment, they want project a superior image But they don’t get among the chosen ones. Here we can find Volkswagen with his classic hinge positioning between Audi and Skoda but has had cars that have been aspirational, such as Golf GTI. We also find a Mazda And there he wanted to play Stellantis with DS and with some specific products of Peugeot, like 508. Renault tried also in his day with the Vel satisf and Avantimeminorities higher than the competition but did not break in the market for their clearly more expensive price. And there it seems to want to play Hyundai and Kia with the electric car. Technology allows them a Reset In your brand image. Ioniq 9 and EV9 are not cars designed just to sell, they are cars designed to show off the latest technology, to demonstrate where they are positioned and how they want to climb in brand perception. Very good wicker To make this leap, in Hyundai they have opted to risk their aesthetics. Like more or like less, it is appreciated. It is a new design line that has already advanced with the Hyundai Santa Fethat flag vehicle in the combustion format that, over the years, has gone from Popular SUV to a car settled in the 60,000 euros, a little suitable size for the European market and an image clearly focused on the American public. The ioniq 9 repeat formula. With the addition that here the SUV goes to the 5.06 meters long and 1.98 meters wide. The image with its 1.79 meters high is powerful. Especially with a very high front, dominated by that pixel network of its lights that repeats formula in the rear. Squares are a tonic that is repeated throughout the structure of the car. The Hyundai Ioniq 9 shouts at the four winds that this is not their site, that Spanish roads and cities are small. But that also has a market niche to which … Read more

We can discuss whether it is the electric car is the one that would buy me if I could only choose one for my house. We can discuss whether the electric car is a good option to travel. We can discuss whether the small battery electric car is sufficient for the common of mortals. I can give reasons for and against the electric car for all the previous situations. But there is a type of driver or a type of car, as you prefer, in which eThe electric car is perfect: The purely urban car. I do not admit discussion here. As a second exclusively urban car, as a car to never get out of the city and its surroundings, as a car to move between traffic jams and take children to school, there is nothing like an electric car.

It is, in fact, one of the models that have generated more information in recent months to the point of sharing prominence (by volume of news generated) with the Renault 5 or the Xiaomi cars. And there was a reason: the Seagull Byd is an electric car that outside our country has already sold One million units. The recipe is simple and basic. As simple as taking a lfp battery of contained capacity, putting a wheel in each corner of the chassis and putting on the street one of the cheapest electric cars on the market. So cheap that, to direct change, The Chinese price seems ridiculous. To Spain, obviously, it could not arrive with a price of less than 10,000 euros. In the jump to Europe, the Seagull Byd has changed its name to adopt that of Byd Dolphin Surf. He has gained size because he grows up to 3.99 meters (in China it measures just over 3.75 meters) but, above all, he has taken the aforementioned recipe and has executed it perfectly. The Dolphin Surf Byd is an urban and electric car that, in the absence of a long test, First it seems almost perfect. Broken the four meters and its 2.50 meters of battle leave a very good interior space for four adults without overwhelms. It measures 1.59 meters wide but does not feel as narrow as a Hyundai insertthat surpasses him in a couple of centimeters in this section. The 308 liters of trunk (to the roof) are more than enough for day to day. But it is inside where Byd puts everything on his part to play what no one has played: a small and cheap electric car that does not feel … cheap. Padded at the door and in the central glove compartment, padded for the rear doors, broad, comfortable, electric and, why not, heated in their upper range. The steering wheel has some well -executed buttons and easy to understand. In front, a seven -inch screen that performs the functions of instrument frame. The graphics have been updated to the screen in the face of what we have seen in other company models and the result is very good. The plant is 10.1 inches. I do not ask for more size but the menus should be rethink. They are still, those of Byd, a little cumbersome to find according to what functions. Here it is added that the direct accesses of the lower part of the screen are too small and it costs to squeeze them in motion without distracting us more from the account. Yes, the screen revolves as in most byd models Below, physical controls work as in the older brother, the Dolphin Byd (which has no second last name). That is, it slides up or down. An original solution but that generates some discomfort when putting the four flashing or selecting the transmission march. First because the button Warning It should be a piece that we can press a single touch, quickly. And this is worth the Dolphin Surf and for all those cars that play to hide The button on the roof of the car or They make it a touch surface. And, second, because the physical buttons of this Byd electric are so small that if I have to slide up or down the button I do not always grab the command well, which can be uncomfortable when maneuvering as quickly as possible. The car is sold with two batteries and two mechanics. The most modest version has a battery of just 30 kWh and a 65 kW (87CV) engine. The largest battery model, 43.2 kWh, is sold with the same engine or with a 115 kW (156 hp) range. In our case we have tried the top of the range that, for my liking, … Read more

Close April and Ebro has put 2,033 units on street. They are not spectacular figures. They would not be if we did not know that the company has just been working for a few months.

The volume of hybrids in Spain has shot in recent years. Ebro, after exclusively offering cars with pure combustion engines, has the opportunity to continue expanding a good customer base in the coming months. “We are making a hole, which we wanted.” That is what they say from the brand and that hole has a quantifiable objective: Manufacture 20,000 units When ending 2025. rather, join the kits that arrive from China. Right now, Ebro cars are a very simple puzzle managed by heavy machinery. The motor train arrives on the one hand, the subchassis on the other and it is in Barcelona where both pieces are joined to form the car. This way of working is common in car factories, the motor train is assembled on the one hand and the body on the other. When the time comes, at a point called “marriage” both lines join and give the car definitive. Right now, that union is the only part of the process that takes place in Spain. Both pieces arrive from China in containers. The intention is that At the end of the year that ends. By then the works at the Nissan facilities should be finished and the settlement lines. Then, in Barcelona the body will be assembled and the division in charge of the paint will also be ready. At the moment, the Ebro continue to arrive from China, manufactured by Chery and, therefore, cousins ​​brothers of the Jaecoo 7among others. As in these, the Ebro S700 are in turn cousins ​​of the Chery Tiggo 7 Pro That the automobile group markets in South America but has endowed both interior cars updated and with good perceived quality. An update that goes further, to twin screens of 12.3 inches or an elegant dashboard furniture but with touch buttons. On the outside, the Ebro S700 PHEV is almost traced to combustion versions. You have to refine the eye to see that the grill is more closed or that the tires are 18 inches, such as the most complete equipment of their pure combustion brothers. In fact, that is the equipment from which the PHEV versions that count as a camera with 540º degrees (the brand calls to see what is under the car) or Sony speakers and then add 18-inch tires, Head-Up Display and fast charging (40 kW) in its Luxury version in front of the premium. A very complete equipment that helps define the Ebro customer. From the brand they confirm that they are aware that their audience has a marked profile. First, They value that Ebro has a Spanish past And that, although with Chinese capital as support, they have Risen Nissan’s factory in Barcelona. Second, they like the inside of the car, they look for that quality perception and their technological arsenal. Comparison with Dacia optionswho choose to flood the interior of hard plastics, is really striking. There, in attracting the potential client to the concessionaire (and they already have 50 operations throughout Spain) is where the company has to win. It is your best asset to convince. Because sitting behind the wheel is perceived that quality. The screens are not the best in the market but they do offer good quality. Another thing is your performance. The central panel has well distributed menus and has a drop -down control center at the top that also has buttons to automatically deactivate the speed alert and the fatigue detector and distractions. Under the screen it has a touch surface with air conditioning buttons. My greatest complaint is with the Info -detached response. I have had the feeling that the system moved well in general but suffered more when we connected the Apple Carplay wirelessly. There the software seemed to become heavier and respond worse to the touches of the screen. In addition, it is difficult to get out of the Apple Carplay interface to the general menu because it requires deploying a … Read more

More practical and more comfortable. Those are the main identity of the new electric renault 4, an alternative to the Renault 5 that clearly has a more youthful approach, more than a driver than this SUV version that is not so linked to its past but that is equally careful. The electric Renault 4 is one of those cars that one arrives with the promise of another car. It is very likely that the client will land at the concessionaire attracted by the electric Renault 5 and when he sees the rear seats and the trunk is decided by this option that is Much more practical For a family with children. It is easier to accommodate these in the rear seats. In fact, adults will travel more easily. And, above all, it has a trunk and a much wider load space. This is our first contact with this reinvention of Renault 4. Electric Renault 4 Technical Card Renault 4 Body type.

We try to look for rationality in objects such as a computer, hiring the fiber of the mobile, when choosing the supermarket we bought. But buying a car is still A point of irrationalityto buy with the heart. To assume that we aspire to have that car for at least a decade ahead. And that’s why aesthetics remains key. That is why brands continue to invest in aspirational products because they know they attract new customers. And that if these new customers do not buy that car will be made with another that is cheaper or more practical but they will already be in their networks. A formula that is only possible if certain identity signs are maintained. With the Renault 5 and 4 that happens. I have rarely felt as observed as in Our first contact of Renault 5. Beauty is that purely subjective element that, curiously, makes majority public to the same product. Some goal will have. Renault has managed to attract looks with his Renault 5. A beautiful car, careful, well topped but whose rear seats and their trunk can leave out many families. For them, the French have that electric Renault 4. A little wider inside, more space in the rear seats and a qualitative leap in the trunk that grows to 420 kilometers. It is not so striking like him Fivedoes not have that captivating but Renualt air has managed to remember the classic 4 cans with an aesthetic that trusts most of its links with the past to a front grill with two round headlights and two rear optical groups that modernize the original. To this is added that, as we say, Renault has made him care. The configuration is the same as in the Renault 5, 10 -inch screen for the central and 7 or 10.1 inches (depending on version) for the instrument frame, both supported in the same frame that takes advantage of Android Automotive to display a set of brilliant graphics and results that are especially striking for the can of the panels. The rest of the cabin shines where his brother model did. The splash furniture presents an illuminated infographic with the name of the model, has well -chosen padded and the seats are comfortable. The steering wheel feels of good quality. And all this is presented with an attractive and brave color palette that breaks with the anodinos (and almost standard in the market) white, black and the wide gray range in all its tones and saturated. If we talk about your system of Infoentrateas we said, there is no complaint. The menus are simple to control and everything is there where you expect. A strip of four direct accesses on the left side and direct access to multimedia systems and a second function in the right. Panel, the latter, which can be hidden. In the center we have the Google Maps map with real -time traffic information. Everything unfolds quickly and without suffering any LAG. It is appreciated that under the central panel the well -known physical controls of air conditioning are maintained. The information in the instrument frame is well distributed, with a configurable central panel to the driver’s taste (including the map) and a right side in which the information related to consumption is shown. Compatibility with Apple Carplay and its wide versatility, carrying Apple’s map to the instrument picture if you want. The button that deactivates adas aids to the driver with a simple touch (activates a personalized configuration) and physical controls in the steering wheel, well distributed and easy to handle is also maintained. What still seems uncomfortable is the arrangement of the controls of the right where the transmission lever, the watering wiper, multimedia control and, now, the cams are crowded. Because the electric renault 4 adds some cams that allow controlling the regenerative braking to the point of adding the One pedalthe function with which we can control the car only with the accelerator. Regeneration when lifting foot is strong enough … Read more

They say that a crisis arises an opportunity. Beyond the optimistic messages that the Marketing team of Mr. Wonderful would sign, it is true that we are all good to stop for a moment and know what we are doing with our life and what direction we want to take in the future. Dacia is at that point. Threatened in the low range By cars of a thousand screens, higher ranges materials and a quality perception above what has been expected, the company has been trying to try reposition your product. This Dacia Bigster is probably his most ambitious proposal in recent years. Here we have tried it in hybrid format. DACIA BIGSTER TECHNICAL SHEET Dacia Bigster Hybrid 155 Body type. C-SUV of five seats. Measures and weight. 4.57 meters long, 1.81 meters wide and 1.71 meters high. 2.70 meters of wheelbase. 1,549 kg of weight. TRUNK. 667 liters. Maximum power. 155 hp.

How to get out of an existential crisis Good for Union Europe regulations Or because of the arrival of Chinese manufacturers who are putting cars at very affordable prices, Dacia has been launching the message that they cannot remain in the niche market in which they so far lived. Your cars They are not the cheapest. And, they assure, They cannot be. To convince it only remains to be the leaders for the price to be the leaders in the quality/price ratio. That is, try to give more than anyone for the minimum possible price. The big problem is that Chinese manufacturers seem to have understood that this must also be their message. Who goes to an Omoda or Jaecoo dealership will meet medium -sized SUV with interiors that surprise their padded, for their huge screens and adjustments that, first, give good impression. In general, the perceived quality is very good For the price they have. None of this you will find in a Dacia car. But you will find many other things that are more important than a thousand screens. A better dynamic and, above all, an engine (in this hybrid case) that yields especially well and that predisposes us to think that we can save a lot of money in the long term. A hybrid that fights artifice games Because, indeed, when you feel at Dacia Bigster you check that you don’t have the Little luxuries They are offering Chinese manufacturers. The central console, the dashboard, the doors … everything is covered with hard plastics that, yes, are well adjusted. The proposal is clear. Dacia tries to offer cheaper materials but that should endure the passage of time. And, sometimes, a hard resistant plastic is better than better apparent quality materials that can suffer worse the passage of time. Of course, if we talk about Chinese brands we cannot advance this or for good or for worse because, simply, they do not have been between us so much time. Here, time will opt for the balance. To improve that quality perception, Dacia does raise the level with a steering wheel that feels firm and slightly padded. In addition, he flees from any game that can give him problems and opt for physical buttons that simply seem to me a more accurate decision than any type of touch panel, carry this or not haptic response. The two screens game is compliant. The instrument picture reads very well and offer three configurable spaces. The information is well distributed, read to the first view and there are numerous interchangeable data in the extreme right to have everything under control. The central screen is 10.1 inches. A correct size. It is not big but either is small to navigate the menus. The disposition is what we would see in a Renault, built on Android Automotive So it is fast and easy to find any option sought. The browsing drinks, therefore, from Google Maps. A browser that takes time to refresh the information more than it should. Sometimes you can doubt and whether we are taking the right out of the roundabout if we are a little clueless. It seems curious to me, however, because navigation between the menus of the infotainment system is agile and has not given us any problem by changing between functions. The rear camera has a quality … well, very improvable Of course, the rear camera screen has very low resolution and help little when maneuvering. It is no accident. From Dacia herself they already launched the message that this and the rest of ADAS AID TO DRIVING That they must mount by obligation of the European Union is exactly because they are an obligation. In motion, the Adaptive Cruise Control I sin sometimes braking applying too much force. On the contrary, acceleration is softer and does not present those problems. The maintenance in the lane works, in general, well. If you are looking for the tickles, it can have a problem (a curve at a relatively high speed on a secondary road) but it is not where it is assumed that this function will be used. We arrive, now, at the best of the car. It seems dynamically that it is slightly below a Dacia Duster and that the excess of size and weight penalizes you a bit when maintaining a path. The address feels a bit soft and I think it would be better to be a bit more direct. Problems that are more evident on … Read more
